tetraodon duboisi??? REPLY

Message 26751 from Lucky Lady!   03/02/2010

  Hello there. I recently purchased a puffer (photo attached) from an import store in Los Angeles. They had this unique puffer misplaced in a tank of pig-nosed puffers, being the only of its kind there.

They were unaware of the possibility that "this is" or "could be" a Tetraodon Duboisi...

I was wondering if you could tell me, if in fact, I have stumbled upon this very rare fish after looking at the photo?? as it is the only kind it exactly resembles!

How could this guy have ended up in a batch of pig-nosed puffers? very strange..

I would love to know how much these are usually worth?

And I apologize, but would also appreciate any relevant info on their true eating habits in their african habitat.....(shrimp? worms? )

He has his own tank and is doing well his first night here it seems..especially after I fed him bloodworms. I tried to feed a small piece of shrimp first, but he ignored it.

Grateful for any information.

Thankyou so so very much,

Any information is GREATLY appreciated!

Kindly,

Lucky Lady!

I DONT WANT TO USE IT JUST BECAUSE I HAVE IT FOR THE KOI

  Reply 26962 Joann Glorioso 09-Mar-2010

The scale of the refractometer should give you on the left side the Specific Gravity (SG) and on the right side, the concentration (per thousand, % or PSU).

SG is temperature-related, concentration is not. If the refractometer doesnt integrate any automatic temperature compensation, reading should usually be done at 20°C (68°F).

Just focus on salinity, not on SG, KH nor pH. You can use that calculator: http://www2.sese.uwa.edu.au/~hollings/pilot/denscalc.html

  Reply 26436 Christine Casal 24-Feb-2010

Dear Dr. Aggelakis,

I doubt if we have all the information you require, however, do check out FishBase for some of them.

1)Siganus rivulatus http://fishbase.sinica.edu.tw/Summary/speciesSummary.php?ID=4545&genusname=Siganus&speciesname=rivulatus&lang=English

2)Parexocoetus mento http://fishbase.sinica.edu.tw/Summary/speciesSummary.php?ID=4904&genusname=Parexocoetus&speciesname=mento&lang=English

3)Siganus luridus http://fishbase.sinica.edu.tw/Summary/speciesSummary.php?ID=4613&genusname=Siganus&speciesname=luridus&lang=English

4)Lagocephalus sceleratus http://fishbase.sinica.edu.tw/Summary/speciesSummary.php?ID=4761&genusname=Lagocephalus&speciesname=sceleratus&lang=English

5)Leiognathus klunzingeri http://fishbase.sinica.edu.tw/Summary/speciesSummary.php?ID=27024&genusname=Equulites&speciesname=klunzingeri&lang=English

and 6) Stephanolepis diaspros http://fishbase.sinica.edu.tw/Summary/speciesSummary.php?ID=14343&genusname=Stephanolepis&speciesname=diaspros&lang=English

1) systematic classification (found on top of the species page)

2) Morphology characteristically (click Morphology under the More information portion)

3) Elements of anatomy (same as number 2)

4) Biological circle (stages of growth) (this we have in different places, etc. Reproduction, Maturity, Spawning, Eggs, Egg development, Larvae, etc.) Your best bet would be to check out thre references we used for the particular species which is also given.

5) Reproduction (click Reproduction under the More information portion)

6) Geographic spread (Provided (Labelled Distribution)in the Species page with map and list of countries, ecosystems, etc. where they have been reported).

7) Fishery (Click FAO production under internet sources – we link to FAO)

Hope you found these useful. Good luck!

Cheers,

Christine

  Gostaria de saber se o peixe gigante "Regalecus Glesne" é comestível, se sua carne é boa. Se é verdade que quando ele vem para a praia é para morrer. Se o mesmo acontece com o Salmão, vem morrer na praia.Obrigado. José.

  Reply 25844 Nicolas Bailly 16-Feb-2010

Senhor. E uma boa pergunta. Nao sei se e comestivel ... Vou buscar a informacao na literatura. Acho que quando a especie encontra-se na praia, e porque ja esta morta. Nao acho que essa especie de grande profundidade vem a superficie para morrer. Mas, quando ela morre na superficie, somente alguma vezes ela e levada pelas correntes maritimas ate as costas. Obrigado por usar a FishBase. Nicolas Bailly WorldFish Center FishBase

  It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.

It's a fanfish, from the place of capture I would guess "Spotted fanfish" (Pteraclis velifera). http://www.fishbase.com/Summary/SpeciesSummary.php?ID=12275&genusname=Pteraclis&speciesname=velifera The alternative is "Pacific fanfish" (P. aesticola) which has been found off of Japan, South Korea and California http://www.fishbase.com/Summary/SpeciesSummary.php?ID=3557&genusname=Pteraclis&speciesname=aesticola

spawning pajama cardinal (Sphaeramia nematoptera) REPLY

Message 25135 from Walter Griffin   01/22/2010

  I just discovered the pajama cardinals have spawned, evident by the lower extention of the lower jaw. I raised many African Cichlids in the past and I am familar with the signs of egsg or fry being held. My real question is, does the male release the fry to feed and they retreat to the month of the male until they are to big to fit? If so are released at night? How long do they hold the fry?

fish identification REPLY

Message 24996 from ritta mundat   01/20/2010

  hi..

i'm a water resources student. during our field work, we found a fish. according to the junior fish expert that came along with us, its not yet in their directory.

i needed help in identification of the fish. the body looks like puffer fish but its not. i have the picture, but i didnt know how to put it inside the forum since i'm new to this. can anybody help?

  Reply 25270 ritta mundat 24-Jan-2010

hi..

thanks for sharing the information. i did look up for the fish species in the book, but somehow i got confused. they all look very similar to me..

any reply regarding those fishes are very much appreciated. thanks once again.


  Reply 25188 Thorke 23-Jan-2010

I think your best bet would to contact Maurice Kottelat (e-mail found here: http://www.fishbase.com/Collaborators/CollaboratorSummary.php?ID=161). For what it's worth I think Louis' puffer ID looks good, and to me no 2 looks quite a bit like Oxygaster anomalura, no 3 and 4 looks like Puntius sp. and no 5 looks like a Labeo such as Labeo erythropterus


  Reply 25114 Louis 22-Jan-2010

I am attaching the photos for Ritta. I believe the Puffer in photo one is Xenopterus naritus. The fish in photos 2, 3 and 4 belong to Cyprinidae (Minnows and Carps); I'm not sure about the 5th. Maybe someone can narrow them down to the species. Oh, and they are freshwater fish from, I presume, Palau.

Orange Filefish REPLY

Message 24978 from Darren   01/20/2010

  Orange filefish travel in pairs or as singles. When they are in pairs, there is almost always a brightly colored one paired with a much duller spotted one. Never 2 dull spotted ones or 2 birghtly colored ones together. Always one of each. As far as I know it has nothing to do with gender. Is there an answer?

I mean it. I can't sleep..I can't eat..Somebody answer..WHY?........thanks.


ID for Spicara REPLY

Message 24837 from Mat   01/17/2010

  Hi, Who can help me with the ID of this fish? I think it is Spicara smaris, but looking at the pictures in Fishbase, the difference with Spicara Maena is not so clear. Pictures are made in Croatia during spawning of this species

  Reply 25039 Thorke 21-Jan-2010

I would say you are right, it's a Spicara smaris. S. smaris is much more slender than S. maena. There's a picture of a fish coloured much like yours on the species page: http://www.fishbase.com/Photos/ThumbnailsSummary.php?ID=1766

When you upload photos on to the FishBase forum you must use a unique file name or you just link to a previous posters file. So, assuming your unidentified fish is the puffer I think it might be a Oceanic Puffer, Lagocephalus lagocephalus. http://fishbase.se/summary/SpeciesSummary.php?id=4292
